I think that strategy approval should stay in hands of moderators.I mean DS really want only quality guides, and if you are a good guide maker and really want to write guides that will help all , you will wait for the approval.Its just they discourage bad guide writers i guess after all.

On the whole voluntaries thing, people can be biased and may not be qualified to be a voluntary. Besides, this could actually create more work and some voluntaries may approve of a guide just because a friend made it or not approve it because they dislike the author. Get what I'm saying?

Not everyone can be trusted and by revealing guides to the voluntaries, there can be numerous issues. The voluntary may not approve the guide so they can create their own guide on the same hero with the same strategy, which leads to plagiarism that can't be caught. Also, if a voluntary gets their own guide, do you think they'll ever reject it? No, they won't so the whole voluntary thing CAN be beneficial but we don't exactly live in a perfect society filled with kind-hearted and wise people.


You can get around this by choosing multiple volunteers who a) aren't the author b) don't have a strat of that hero pending c) are active and educated member here at ds (I would say premium members, VIPs, users with megakills+ who people know as good, reasonable people in addition to the mods/support team/graphics team/Garfield)

also, if a guide was rejected, there could be a way for CONSTRUCTIVE criticism so the guide can be perfected and resubmitted

those should be easy to check


also, since the guides are so important, if the guides look like they took less than an hour to make, they should not even be considered (I can understand when this site was first begun that getting guides for all heroes was kinda important but not anymore)

do you agree with me?

Laughing Laughing Laughing

Ohhh how Lestat was a funny guy, too bad he was banned Sad

Well, id accually have to agree with this.

BUT, we wouldnt pick just normal members to read over the guide, Well educated members that the Mods have looked over and have made great suggestions on in the forums. Like.. CFX and Ghost.

Both contribute alot to DS...

But then agian.. Maturity? CFX is only like 14 isnt he? and Ghost is 16? Hmmm I suppose another lost battle for Lestat.

rofl i know yeah...

ummm
i would do this.

the real main advantage is that it removes the whole, my strategy is pending thing, when will it be approved.

maybe they could attach a rejected stamp to it or something.

i would suggest.
well respected people, support team, vip and the like can go through and look at guides, nod or shun them...
then from there we get a shortlist that the mods and drew look at?

damn straight i'm better than you ^_^

the easiest way i can think to implement this would be giving the ability to look at submitted guides to the vip group and up in the chain of command..

members > (vip > st) > [mods > drew]
(shortlisers)[deciders]

oh and i would need to be promoted to vip for this

lol @ you guys

go PM someone who is in a higher position than me if you really want this to happen lol. Even if i agreed with you guys (which i partly do as long as it follows what Ghost and Ganksta said), i cant do anything about this. You'd have to PM Drew.

So in other words, PM drew cause im too lazy to do so myself Laughing

you would be wrong, i am currently in school.
but yes i will eventually summarise this into a message for drew.

@dohyun
thats just the flaw with my way of doing it...

drew has more expertise than me and could probably just give the ability to single users.
